Examines the archaeology of surviving shorelines in Britain and Ireland from the beginning of the Neolithic period until the end of the Early Bronze Age.
An ethnographic study of the monumental buildings from the prehistoric to early medieval periods in northern and northwestern Europe.
In prehistoric Europe natural surfaces in the landscape were often painted or carved. It happened between the adoption of farming and the origins of the state, but these images are rarely integrated into wider accounts of prehistoric archaeology. This Element reviews new research and attempts to remedy this problem.
Richard Bradley examines how archaeologists might study origin myths and the different ways in which prehistoric people recalled, recorded and reviewed their past.
This study explores how our prehistoric ancestors developed rituals from everyday life and domestic activities. This book examines farming, craft production and the occupation of houses, which were all ritualized in prehistoric Europe.
Professor Bradley discusses the numerous rock carvings made four to five thousand years ago, along the Atlantic seaboard, from Scotland to Spain.
The text studies the importance of monuments tracing their history from their first creation to over 6000 years later. Part one discusses how monuments first developed, and part two studies how such monuments were modified and reinterpreted to suit the changing needs of society.
More than quarter of a century ago Richard Bradley published The Passage of Arms. It was conceived as An Archaeological Analysis of Prehistoric Hoards and Votive Deposits, but, as the author concedes, these terms were too narrrowly focused for the complex subject of deliberate deposition and the period covered too short. A Geography of Offerings has been written to provoke a reaction from archaeologists and has two main aims. The first is to move this kind of archaeology away from the minute study of ancient objects to a more ambitious analysis of ancient places and landscapes. The second is to recognise that problems of interpretation are not restricted to the pre-Roman period. Mesolithic finds have a place in this discussion, and so do those of the 1st millennium AD. Archaeologists studying individual periods confront with similar problems and the same debates are repeated within separate groups of scholars - but they arrive at different conclusions. Here, the author presents a review that brings these discussions together and extends across the entire sequence. Rather than offer a comprehensive survey, this is an extended essay about the strengths and weaknesses of current thinking regarding specialised deposits, which encompass both sacrificial deposits characterised by large quantities of animal and human bones and other collections which are dominated by finds of stone or metal artefacts. It considers current approaches and theory, the histories of individual artefacts and the landscape and physical context of the of places where they were deposited, the character of materials, the importance of animism and the character of ancient cosmologies.
